Education and family income
Each year of secondary education for girls increases their eventual earnings by up to 25%. This can lead to healthier and better educated children, due to women’s tendency to invest their income into their families.
Economy and Empowering girls
Empowering girls can accelerate economic growth. If young women were as economically enabled as young men, annual GDPs could grow up faster by 4.4%, alleviating global labor shortages.
Reading and child health
A child born to a literate mother is 50% more likely to live past age five.
Girl education and mortality
Every extra year added to girls’ education correlates to 5 ~ 10% reduction in their infant’s mortality.
